What the Key Specifications Mean on Site
These are the figures that shape coverage and site design:
- Gain of 10dBi / 12dBi: the higher gain on 1710-3800MHz helps offset the extra path loss at mid band and 3.5GHz, narrowing the coverage gap between the 5G layer and the low-band LTE layer.
- Horizontal beamwidth of 65°±10° / 60°±10°: the standard width for three-sector sites, where three panels spaced 120° apart cover the full circle.
- Vertical beamwidth of 40°±10° / 28°±10°: a wide vertical beam that fills coverage close to the mast and is forgiving on mounting height and tilt.
- Front-to-back ratio of ≥18dB / ≥20dB: limits the energy radiated behind the panel, so neighboring sectors interfere less with each other.
- 200W maximum input power, VSWR ≤2.0 and 50Ω impedance: generous power headroom and a clean match to standard base station radios and feeders.
- DC grounded lightning protection: gives lightning-induced surges a direct path to ground, helping protect the connected radio.
One Panel Antenna for 4G LTE and 5G NR Sites
Most cell sites now run several bands at once: LTE on 700MHz or 800MHz for reach, 1800MHz and 2100MHz for capacity, and 5G NR at 3.5GHz on top. This dual-polarized panel antenna covers all of them from one compact radome on one pole mount, so a single antenna replaces a stack of single-band units.
- 698-960MHz covers the 700, 800 and 900MHz low bands that carry LTE over long distances and into buildings.
- 1710-3800MHz spans the 1800, 2100, 2300 and 2600MHz mid bands plus 3.3-3.8GHz, the 5G NR n78 band.
When an operator refarms 700MHz, 1800MHz or 2100MHz spectrum for 5G NR, the same antenna stays in service.
The panel is designed for mobile communication systems and for base station signal transmission and coverage. Typical deployments include:
- Sector coverage on operator and neutral-host sites, mounted on rooftops, towers and street poles
- Private LTE and 5G networks at factories, ports and mines, plus emergency communication networks
- 5G coverage for venues, transport terminals and subway tunnels
- Signal transmission and coverage in remote and mountainous areas
